  • Laika: Aged Through Blood reviewed by Brendan Graeber on PC. Also coming soon to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.
    "Laika: Aged Through Blood mixes motorbikes and gunplay to create an incredibly unique metroidvania experience. Bolstered by a beautiful soundtrack and brutal story, its unapologetic approach to mastering both bike and bullet rewards learning from frequents death with some seriously slick and satisfying combat."

    No matter how many GaaS and broken games release, it’s nice to know we can rely on Indies for original stories, gameplay, and more risk-taking concepts.

      The Bird empire looks like a parody of The Empire of Mankind in Warhammer 40k, But well, is a relief you can give them what they deserve.

    Their free demo convinced me I’d be buying it, although your review showing the bike position on the reticle was interesting to me as I’d never noticed or had a pop up point that out to me. Excited to keep that in mind on my playthrough
